This complete video course helps you build a solid understanding of networking in the Windows Server environment. Hands-on skills for real-world success!
Description
One of the key ingredients to being a successful server administrator is to have a firm understanding of how networking works in the server environment. These easy video tutorials are designed to help you quickly build an understanding of Windows Server 2012 Networking Services including DNS, DHCP, NPS, IPv4, IPv6, and more. World-class networking instructor and consultant Ed Liberman starts by introducing the absolute basics of the OSI networking model and the TCP/IP protocol suite. Next, he guides you through the basics of IP addressing and subnetting, static and automatic TCP/IP configuration, DHCP and DNS installation and management, zones and name resolution, and more. He concludes by explaining how IPv6 overcomes the growing limitations of IPv4 networks, how to get started with it, and what you need to know to ensure compatibility between IPv4 and IPv6.

Table of ContentsIntroductionIn the Introduction, discover what you’ll need to know about Windows Server networking and how this course plans to help you master it quickly and efficiently.
Lesson 1: Overview of TCP/IPIn Lesson 1, you start by understanding both the OSI networking model and the TCP/IP Protocol Suite; then, move on to Transport Layer and Internet Layer Protocols and wrap up with Sockets.
Lesson 2: Understanding IP AddressingLesson 2 teaches you what IP addresses are, how public and private IP addresses differ, how to convert decimal to binary for understanding IP addresses, and how both classful and classless addressing work.
Lesson 3: SubnettingLesson 3 explains subnet masks and subnetting, how to calculate subnet addresses, and reviews common scenarios for using subnetting.
Lesson 4: Configuring TCP/IPIn Lesson 4, you learn TCP/IP configuration techniques using static or automatic configuration, compare alternate static vs. APIPA methods, and explore common TCP/IP configuration troubleshooting tools.
Lesson 5: Overview of DHCPIn Lesson 5, you discover DHCP’s rationale and benefits, explore DHCP lease and renewal processes, understand how DHCP and DNS can work together, and use DHCP in a routed network.
Lesson 6: Configuring DHCPLesson 6 explains how to install DHCP, create scopes, and work with scope options and reservations.
Lesson 7: Managing DHCPIn Lesson 7, you perform basic DHCP database management tasks, implement DHCP security, and work with DHCP statistics and logging.
Lesson 8: Name ResolutionLesson 8 discusses what computer names and DNS are and then explores DNS zones and the name resolution process.
Lesson 9: DNS Installation and ConfigurationIn Lesson 9, you manually install DNS, work with DNS queries, learn how Internet DNS names are resolved, and use DNS forwarding and caching.
Lesson 10: Managing DNS ZonesLesson 10 explains zone types and shows how to perform dynamic updates, work with Active Directory Integrated Zones, and perform zone transfers.
Lesson 11: Introduction to IPv6Lesson 11 discusses IPv4’s disadvantages and how IPv6 overcomes them, and you learn about IPv6 addressing and the types of IPv6 addresses and explore IPv4/IPv6 compatibility.
